cats for adoption

have had at least their initial vaccination (this depends on their age and how long they’ve been here)

have been flea- and worm-treated

are house-trained.

There is an adoption fee of $150 per cat or kitten, or $250 for two (because cats usually love a feline friend). You will receive a complimentary bag of Hill’s Science Diet (adult or kitten) plus a comprehensive information pack.

It is a legal requirement to register your cat on the Companion Animals Register. Cat Protection is an approved registration agent so at the point of adoption, we will also register your new family member/s for you, charging only the applicable fee – currently $27.50 (or $23 for an eligible pensioner concession).

You will see some cats and kittens we have are restricted to ‘indoors-only’ homes. This may be because the cat’s pale features makes them susceptible to skin cancer, or may be because the cat is very shy. Cats can live perfectly healthy and happy lives indoors – for more information, read our fact sheet on indoor cats.
